As someone who receives more emails than a human should have to endure every day I now finally understand why emails written in all caps annoy me so much. I feel much better knowing this :) John It’s funny how easy it was to read the first few lines.

You reminded me of ee cummings and all his funny poems. The whole capitalization thing is a relatively recent phenomenon. Perhaps we could do without them, however.

Thank you! Heh, I almost thought you made a mistake with that book title, but I see now. Yes, I was reading about the capitalization thing when doing a little research for this post. Actually, I believe it's the other way around: lowercase letters are the recent phenomenon.So how has it been designing good typography in Japanese? I imagine it's quite different than when doing it for English. Are there so many different typefaces to choose from?You reminded me of ee cummings and all his funny poems. He liked to write mostly in lowercase, but he capitalized weird words and use punctuation unusually. :D You’re so encouraging, John. Thank you!
